Hello, friends!
Ask the community for help. This is my first time asking this question, please help me.
We order a new server. There are 2 disks of 1 Terabyte each.
Tech support asks:
-“How to format disks”
I have a question, please help me decide, I need both disks to work. Storing backups on a separate disk is excluded. Both should use the same tasks.
Installing one control panel for HCP and creating accounts for websites, mail and databases.
Thank you,
Sincerely,

Personally always format disk as 1 partion and run them in RAID 1 – Mirroring
In that case 1 drive fails you are always able to run the server for a short time… and replace it with out much downtime.
Backups should go to an external server …

Thank you for your advice.
Please tell me if it is possible to use both disks as an extension of the main partition.
If two disks are 2 x 1 TB, then so that 2 TB is available to me for users
Is it possible to tweak the config to work like this
Thank you,
Sincerely,

Then you need to run in raid 0. How ever if a drive fails you have lost your data…
